Settings are sprinkled throughout your Windows Phone, you might want to
customize a few basic ones as you start using your phone. These setLings
include turning the ringer on or off, setting display brightness, and setting up
your Region and Language settings.
ADjUSTING THE RINGER
Some devices have physical ring/silent switches. but on Windows Phone you
simply use the volume buttons to control the ringer. It might not be as simple
as a physical switch, but after you learn the process, it is quick and easy.
To adjust the ringer, simply follow these steps:
Turn on the display by tapping the Power butLon. You do not need to
unlock your Windows Phone device.
Press the volume buttons up or down. A ringer control panel slides
down from the top.
Tap the Ring icon on the right side to switch to Vibrate mode, or tap the
Vibrate icon to switch to Ringer modc.
To adjust the ringer volume, simply press repeatedly or hold up or down
the Volume button to adjust the volume level of the ringer.
Although this method is the quickest way to toggle between the ringer or
vibration, you can also simply press the volume down button and hold it as
the left side status goes down through the volume levels and finally ends in
Vibration mode.
ADJUSTING THE BRI(;HTNESS
Windows PFione 7 devices use various display tcchnologicr, including
AMOLED (active matrix organic light emitting diode), Super AMOLED, LCD
(liq uid crystal display), and SLCD (Super LC D). Therefore, you may find the
need to adjust the brightness setting for low light conditions or as a means to
manage your battery life.
To manage your brightness settings. follow these steps:
Turn on and unlock you Windows Phone.

Hi Guys
I dont know if this is me but, it looks as if you cant change the system volume to the phone ringing volume. I know there is a tab over to change them both but the volume slider adjusts them both as the same time.
Im running an orange Diamond using
Orange Rom 1.37.405.1
Hi Sutt,
There're two volume settings: 1 for ring, 1 for system; I hadn't seen any UI that allows both to be set at the same time.
Under the Sound UI, you'll see the Ring Volume. Just "thumb" the screen up to see the System Volume. Or press the volume buttons to access the System Volume UI, and then immediately press the left arrow button at the top-left-hand corner to access the Ring Volume UI.
I set both to 80% most of the time. But when on wired ear-piece, I'll put system down to 5%; when in-door, ring to 60%.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
I have the following problem:
I call a number and set the in-call volume to any level and wait for the HTV volume screen do disappear.
1. Sometimes as soon as the volume setting screen disappears the volume gets reverted back to the lowest setting. --> I have to keep presing the VolumeUp button in order to hear the other party.
2. Other times the volume is kept when the control disappears However, when I want to set the volume again it forgets my previous volume setting and starts from the lowest setting again.
3. Sometimes it even displays max volume on the screen but I hear that the lowest setting is selected because the volume is very low. I also cannot increase the volume because it thinks that the highest setting is selected. I can press volume down and volume up again, which solves the problem.
I like the design of the HTC volume control, so I do not want to revert back to the default WM volume slider. However, the UI of the HTC volume control is not in correlation with the actual volume level. Any suggestions?
Hey everyone, just want to address a few problems with my new Captivate:
Volume:
-For some reason, adjusting the Media Volume also adjusts the In-Call Volume after saving the settings and going back into the menu. I've installed apps such as QuickSettings and Audio Manager in attempt to rectify the issue, but, to no avail, the higher/lower the Media Volume, the higher/lower the In-Call Volume is in the settings when I go to adjust them again.
-Whenever I use the AT&T numbers in my Contacts list (I.E.: to check minutes/data used etc.) the phone automatically turns down my Notifications volume after dialing the codes.
Keyboard:
-The Andriod keyboard has an issue with turning off caps if I hit the key immediately after tapping space. Doing so on the Samsung keyboard turns on caps lock. Annoying when I'm texting quickly and have to slow down just to capitalize one letter. :-\
Are these issues common, or am I the only one? Any known fixes?
I know that when I'm listening to music the volume goes up right before a call( because my Media Volume is not all the way up but my In-Call Volume is) after the call my media volume returns to its normal state after half a second of music replaying.
In short, I don't have that problem...
In Kit Kat, I held down the power key for a second and was then able to select different sound profiles depending on where I was.
In Lollipop, the only option I get is Power Down!
Have the toggles moved somewhere else?
They have been removed, the tap the bell icon in the volume bar (through the rockers), it will set to vibrate. And then, there is the priority settings to mess about - no silent mode, for now; perhaps on 5.1!
Cool thanks
Press one of the volume buttons. Then tap "None". That will set your phone for no interruptions which is what I'm finding to be silent mode. You can set some contacts to have a priority and use the priority setting to allow certain contacts to still ring.

Note that this will only work until the next time Moto Voice is invoked (purposely or accidentally); then the phone will set the ringer volume to 60% and leave it there.
WTF?

Yeah, I think that's clearly a bug. Hope they can fix in next release.
I'm running COS 6.1 A.10 on my unrooted/unlocked European X2 Pro.
When I press the physical volume buttons, I very often don't see the sound control popup. Sometimes it appears and I can change the volume, but in most cases it doesn't appear at all. It doesn't make a difference which app I'm using - YouTube, Prime Video. I don't have an active BT device linked or a headset plugged in either. Quiet Time is turned off, all volumes in Sound & Vibration are turned to medium, the default function for volume buttons is set to Media Volume although nothing changes if it's set to Media Volume.
I used to have MacroDroid to change sound settings based on time/location/events but that's uninstalled. I still have Do Not Disturb which mutes my phone during calendar events. Regardless of any such apps, I should still be able to use the volume buttons to adjust the volume but there are no popups most of the time.
I just restarted my phone and the volume popup is back. I know this happened before but after a while it's gone again without knowing why. Does anyone have an idea what could be the reason and how I can get my volume popup back permanently? Thanks for your help.
